　　传统的中国婚礼流程从求婚开始，新郎会送一封书信至新娘家，请求迎娶他们家的女儿。多数情况下，新郎家会雇用一位专业媒人(matchmaker)沟通双方家庭。准新郎和准新娘的生辰八字(BaZi)也要进行比对，以确保根据中国传统占星学(astrology),这对夫妻不犯冲(compatible)。如今，中国大城市的婚礼跟西方很 相似。然而，在小地方，仍然遵循传统，婚礼流程也基本未变。

In many cases，a professional matchmaker is employed by the i groom's family to communicate the families of both parties. The birthdates of the bride-to-be and groom-to-be are checked to make sure the couple is compatible according to traditional Chinese astrology. Today，wedding ceremonies in large cities of China closely resemble the western ones. In smaller places，however，some of the traditions are still kept and the wedding process remains largely unchanged.
